The history buffer is currently a static array which can be some 10-40 kiB depending on configuration, and so adds considerably to the U-Boot binary size. Allocate it dynamically instead to reduce the U-Boot binary size.

This is very intriguing...
I would expect this to end up in BSS, so not part of the image, but allocated when U-Boot starts.
What do you mean by U-Boot binary size? Which architecture is this?
ARM64 , I spotted it at rcar3_salvator-x_defconfig but it has been a while since I created those patches , they were on hold for a while .
